Ordinary Accessibility: Why the Private Rented Sector Must Change

This new case study, developed through the Intersectional Stigma of Place-Based Ageing (ISPA) project, demonstrates how small, process-driven changes and inclusive design can have transformative effects on accessibility in the private rented sector (PRSS); reframing accessible features as assets rather than something that detracts from the property.

It makes the case that disabled renters must be treated as ordinary customers navigating an ordinary market and not as a ‘problem’, and shows how lived experience can act as both a diagnostic tool and a catalyst for innovation, as well as offering insight for embedding accessibility into the everyday culture of the PRS, not as a niche add-on.
